lyrics

I’ve been a troublemaker since I was young
I only followed what my ma and pa done
What you gonna do when you’re trouble and strife
I done gone and got me a pirate’s life
What you say ain’t gonna change my ways, what you say ain’t gonna change

Yo, ho, yo, ho ho, gimme two guns and a bottle of rum, I said yo, ho, yo ho ho, sing me the pirate song

Now living on the edge ain’t for some
But you know that’s how bad girls get their fun
Chasin' two birds instead of one in the hand
And all while I gone and stick it the man
What you say ain’t gonna change my ways, what you say ain’t gonna change

Yo, ho, yo, ho ho, gimme two guns and a bottle of rum, I said yo, ho, yo ho ho, sing me the pirate song

I been chasing and I been dreaming, but my mind lord, gives me freedom

Yo, ho, yo, ho ho, gimme two guns and a bottle of rum, I said yo, ho, yo ho ho, sing me the pirate song
